88 years old (Born on December 22, 1936)
Happy Birthday, Tom Hawkins! From your days dazzling fans with the Minneapolis Lakers to lighting up the court in Los Angeles and Cincinnati, you always knew how to make basketball look easy. Your smooth moves as a small forward made defenders dizzy—rumor has it some are still recovering!Even though today's NBA stars have flashy sneakers and Instagram followers, they'll never match your timeless style from 1959-1969. Here's hoping your birthday is filled with laughter, joy, and fewer fouls than you got away with on court! Keep smiling—you've earned legendary status both on the hardwood and off it.
